<title><![CDATA[Tattooing to Conceal a Hair Transplant Donor Scar?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Micropigmentation is indeed a form of cosmetic tattooing. These technicians are supposed to use vegetable/mineral extracts rather than ink to apply the dots, which allegedly fade naturally over time. I've seen impressive results when this technique has been used to break up the appearance of hair transplant donor scars in photos, but I'd remain very cautious...]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Hair Transplant Growth Timelines: Are They  Really Accurate? ]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[The standard graft growth timeline applies to many patients, but the prevailing opinion among experts is that attempting to define a universal schedule for growth after a hair transplant is ultimately an exercise in futility. Individual physiology will always play a significant role, so basing personal expectations on others' exact experiences... ]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Can I Use Straightening Products After a Hair Transplant?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[In general, excessive heat is not healthy for your hair, transplanted or otherwise. Straightening hair every day with something like a flattening iron could make it brittle, and possibly more prone to breakage; however, even this should not hurt the actual follicles or cause permanent hair loss. Misuse of chemical straighteners is another story entirely...]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Resuming Contact Sports with a Helmet after FUE Hair Transplantation]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Strip patients are usually advised against engaging in contact sports for the first few months to avoid potentially aggravating or stretching the donor scar, while FUE candidates may have the option of resuming heavier activity sooner, possibly within two weeks. That being said, you certainly don't want to push your cardiovascular system too hard during the initial healing period...

<title><![CDATA[19 and Balding - Considering a Hair Transplant]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[At 19 years of age, most reputable hair restoration physicians would argue that you're not yet a candidate for hair transplant surgery simply due to your age. I happen to agree. The truth is, young men are at a much greater risk of excessive hair loss and transplanting them is often considered irresponsible. Donor hair supply is limited and...]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[How Soon After a Hair Transplant Can I have a Second Procedure?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[In my opinion, it's advisable to wait at least a year to let your first hair transplant fully mature. If hair is being transplanted to a new virgin area of the scalp, some may argue that a patient can undergo a second hair transplant procedure 6 months after the first. However in my personal experience, I've found that scalp elasticity in the donor area takes up to...]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[How Many Hairs Can Hair Transplant Surgery Produce?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[How many follicular units (hair groupings as they occur naturally) can be harvested during hair transplant surgery ultimately depends on your donor hair supply, available and "safe" hair on the sides and back of your scalp resistant to DHT. For follicular unit hair transplantation (FUT) also known as the “strip” procedure, this includes...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[If you're an active tennis player, your body will be making a lot of jerking and twisting movements not to mention sweating. In my opinion, this could put unnecessary tension and strain on the donor area so early after your hair transplant procedure.  In my opinion, wait at least 2 weeks before playing any active sports and...]]></description>
